How long is a quick wash?

It seem the time on my machine does not work and a quick wash would
probably take 20 years.
Hence I use a timer and turn it manually.
I gave it 30 mins last time, however I guess the time
need is a variable so I have more control with a timer anyway.

LOL!! ECO wash???
How can it be a eco wash if it uses 3 hours worth of electricity?
The timer does not turn any more on the quick wash so I start it and set a kitchen timer
that bleeps to 30 mins or so.
Better than getting a new machine!
The spin timer works fine though, so I give it 30 mins and turn it manually to spin.0 -
Eco wash doesn't just refer to the time taken Maybe it's a cold water wash or a wash cycle that uses less water.
My speed wash on a 40 degree cycle is 62 minutes.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

A quick wash is 30 mins on my machine. I do everything on that setting.

A quick daily wash for 8kg is 39 minutes at 30 on mine; a short 2kg at 30 is 14 minutes and a fresh up cold wash is 11 minutes. But they include one spin cycle too.

My quick wash at 40 degrees is 40 minutes, the rinse option and the refresh option are 30 minutes in cold. My ECO wash at 60 is 3 hours, it rinses first, then adds hot water, and leaves it to soak for about an hour and a half, then it rinses with cold. I use it all the time for towels and bedding.Are you wombling, too, in '22? € 58,96 = £ 52.09Wombling in Restrictive Times (2021) € 2.138,82 = £ 1,813.15Wombabeluba 2020! € 453,22 = £ 403.842019's wi-wa-wombles € 2.244,20 = £ 1,909.46Wombling to wealth 2018 € 972,97 = £ 879.54Still a womble 2017 #25 € 7.116,68 = £ 6,309.50Wombling Free 2016 #2 € 3.484,31 = £ 3,104.590

My quick wash is 20 minutes, but I do the longer or hot wash sometimes as I have pets.0

Mine is 60 mins but depends if a full or half load. I spilt coffee on a dress and washed it on its own and took 40 mins. There is a really quick wash at 35 mins but only an 800 spin. On mine an eco wash lasts 2 hours but that is because it has long periods of sitting still, letting the clothes soak.0

Mines a two minute shower every morning0

Mine is 30 mins, but there is a 15 min freshen up wash too.
I tend to use the 30 min wash mostly and then put it on a fast spin which takes it to 45 mins total.0
